Beyond the Alibi: Relational Ontology of the Soul and the Restoration of Life

Beyond the Alibi: Relational Ontology of the Soul and the Restoration of Life investigates a central problem of human experience: how the subject reorganizes when the continuity of psychic experience is disrupted and belonging comes to be experienced as conditional. The book advances the hypothesis that a significant portion of psychological suffering does not arise solely from isolated traumatic events or intrapsychic conflicts, but from the functional reorganization that occurs when fundamental experiences of attachment, recognition, differentiation, and relational support fail to achieve sufficient continuity. Under such conditions, action progressively ceases to express spontaneous participation in life and instead comes to function as a condition for subjective legitimacy.
